Free ms swan software for linux

ms-sys is a Linux program for writing Microsoft compatible boot records. The program does the same as Microsoft "fdisk /mbr" to a hard disk or "sys d:" to a floppy or FAT partition except that it does not copy any system files, only the boot record is written.

It is also able to do the same as Microsoft "sys d:" to a floppy or FAT partition except that it does not copy any system files, only the boot record is written.

The program is useful when using Linux to restore a backup of a reference
Microsoft Windows installation.

Installation:

Step 1, unpack the archive:

tar -xzvf ms-sys*.tgz

Step 2, compile:

cd ms-sys
make

Step 3, become root and install

su (and give password)
make install

MS CHM is a library for dealing with Microsoft ITSS/CHM format files. Right now, it is a very simple library, but sufficient for dealing with all of the .chm files Ive come across.
Due to the fairly well-designed indexing built into this particular file format, even a small library is able to gain reasonably good performance indexing into ITSS archives.
Applications which use chmlib:
arCHMage
xCHM
GnoCHM
Language bindings for chmlib:
PyCHM (Python)
Archive::CHM (Perl)
Text::CHM (Perl)
libCHMxx (C++)
Enhancements:
- Stack-allocated buffers have been changed to heap-allocated buffers to avoid stack corruption security problems.
- A security advisory for this issue is forthcoming from iDefense [IDEF2125].

pymssql module provides access to MS SQL Servers from Python scripts.
Its the most efficient method of accessing MS SQL Servers data from Python scripts. If you care about performance, you can give it a try.
Supported Platforms
pymssql 0.7.4 has been tested on FreeBSD 6.0, NetBSD 2.1, 3.0, Linux with kernel 2.6, and Windows XP. It should also run on other platforms.
pymssql 0.7.1 has been tested on FreeBSD 5.4 and 6.0, NetBSD 2.0.2, Linux with kernel 2.6, Solaris 10/x86, Mac OS X (thanks Joseph Kocherhans) and Windows XP. It should also run on other platforms.
If you have any experience with other platforms, just let me know and Ill add the info here.
Supported SQL Server versions
pymssql 0.7.4 on *BSD, Linux was successfully tested with SQL Server 2000, all service pack levels.
pymssql 0.7.4 on Windows was successfully tested with SQL Server 2000 RTM, SP3a and SP4, and with SQL Server 2005 RTM (9.00.1399.06).
Main features:
- Supports connecting to MS SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 servers, all editions and service pack levels.
- Supports named instances and non-standard port numbers.
- Great performance: it uses MS SQL DB-Library for C instead of Win32 ODBC.
- Multiple Query/Multiple Result.
- Supports "almost all" of the DB-API 2.0.

WMDsweeper project is a 3D minesweeper clone.

WMDsweeper is a 3D/2D-based minesweeper game. It has text-based and graphical interfaces for playing. Saving games, loading games, and configuring different skins are supported.

The game also offers extras such as saving, loading, and customising the games appearance and difficulty. It is currently still a fairly fresh project (under a year old, and not much worked on until recently). There is a MS Windows Binary available, and Linux source code available (with a precompiled binary thrown in).

Due to the age of the project the MS Windows and *nix versions are released independently, so you may have to go to an older release to get the latest Windows Binary.

KSqlAnalyzer is a tool for easily accessing the data of a MS SQL database. It is made for developing and testing new SQL queries direclty on the server.
The functionality and look/feel of KSqlAnalyzer are similar to SQL Query Analyzer by Microsoft.
KSqlAnalyzer uses parts of the TDS library, and the editor uses parts of the KWrite source code becaus of its brilliant sytnax highlighting.
Enhancements:
- Trigger viewing and editing, and a new Edit menu item (Clear).

Need a Type 3 JDBC Driver for MS Access or SQL Server? Think RmiJdbc!
RmiJdbc project is a client/server JDBC Driver that relies on Java RMI.
All JDBC classes (like Connection, ResultSet, etc...) are distributed as RMI objects, so that you can distribute as you like the access to any database supporting the JDBC API.
In fact, RmiJdbc is just a bridge to allow remote access to JDBC drivers.
Why RmiJdbc?
- You develop a client/server application with databases on Windows (NT)? Use RmiJdbc along with the JDBC/ODBC Bridge, your Windows (NT) databases become remotely accessible in Java.
- You implement a JDBC Driver? Just implement the JDBC classes locally, dont bother with remote access!
- You need serializable JDBC classes? Here they are.
Enhancements:
- Add features/limitations/changes here

Eligante is software for archival, management and browsing (with full-text search functions) of all your communications, be it via email, chat (IRC, ICQ, MSN, etc.), or even messaging Web sites (hi5, orkut, etc.).
Messages are fetched from their original source and stored in a MySQL database. A Web interface allows you to search all data.
In this way, you can see all the conversations you had with someone, independently of where the conversation took place.
Enhancements:
- MS Windows support was added.
- An internal lightweight HTTP server was added for those who dont want to install Apache.
- SQLite support was added.
